Definition[]

Hyperfixkin is kinning a fictional character, non-human animal, etc. due to a hyperfixation on said being. This identity may go away after the hyperfixation has ended, or it may be a permanent identity.

Hyperfixkin can be a microlabel of fictionkin, therian, otherhearted, etc. depending on the subject that the user is identifying with/as.

Hyperfixkin can be used as a form of fictionflicker.[1]

Exclusivity[]

Hyperfixkin is a neurodivergent-exclusive term. Only those who experience hyperfixations[2] can use this label.

Shifts[]

Shifts are not experienced differently by hyperfixkin than therians, fictionkins, otherhearted, etc.

After a hyperfixation on the character, animal, etc. shifts may stop happening/reduce in strength or frequency.

Coining[]

This label was coined by MoonlightMeteor[3] on July 19th, 2024.
